Show Notes

Joe Biden wouldn't be President without the surge in turnout of young voters in the US.

On this episode of inFocus, I’m joined by John Della Volpe the founder and CEO of SocialSphere and for 21 years, he has been the Director of Polling at Harvard University’s Institute of Politics where he has led the research program exploring the attitudes and opinions of America’s Millennials and Generation Z.

John also recently served as a pollster for President-elect Joe Biden and Vice-President-elect Kamala Harris’s 2020 campaign where he focused on youth research.

John and I have gotten to know each other over the past few years after he met while he visited Ottawa in 2019.

I had a lot of fun speaking with John. Hope you enjoy it.
